Joe Marler has some thoughts about Paloma Faith’s Celebrity Traitors exit.

Paloma was eliminated first on the hit BBC reality show by her close friend and eventual winner, Alan Carr. The "Picking Up The Pieces" singer was quite upset by the move, leading to speculation that she had fallen out with Alan as a result of the game.

Rugby star Marler, who also reached the final, addressed Paloma's response in an exclusive interview with The Sun. He said, “I think Paloma made up for the fact that she went out first by making the biggest song and dance of it the whole way through.”

Throughout the series, Paloma kept the discussion alive around her perceived betrayal.

On the spinoff show Uncloaked, she remarked: “These are like three of my favourite people (Alan, Jonathan Ross, and Cat Burns) that I was sure… I hope they never call me again. Bang out of order. Bang out of order. I feel really even more betrayed now. I feel betrayed by Jonathan and Alan.”

When later questioned about the reported rift on The One Show, she stated: “My default setting is forgiveness, but I don’t forget.”

Paloma & Alan Have Made Amends

Despite her previous comments, the Brit Award-winner eventually confessed that she and Alan had made friends, revealing on ITV’s This Morning that it’s “completely impossible for me to hold a grudge.”

Meanwhile, Joe also shared his thoughts on the rumours surrounding the cast for the upcoming series of Celebrity Traitors.

“If some of the rumours I’ve heard are true about who’s in the next series, I’d absolutely love it,” he told The Sun, adding that actor Danny Dyer is at the top of his Traitors cast wishlist.
